Are you trying to set a record for the most falsehoods in a single FR post? I mean, you're certainly close to it.

For example:

then make up a pagan day called Easter that never falls on Passover.

But Easter does sometimes fall on Passover. Sometimes it doesn't. As I explained elsewhere, that's what you get when you tie Easter to the solar calendar instead of a lunar calendar.

Oh, and the name? The holiday was called Πασχα, pronounced "pahska," by the people who set it up. Centuries later, English and Dutch people started calling it "Easter". Did it only become pagan then? Because the original people who set up Πασχα didn't think it was pagan.

They have murdered more Believers than all others combined over the centuries

Lying and slandering are sins, friend.

Passover ALWAYS falls on Nisan 15. Jews observe the proper day each year, Easter is NOT Passover. A simple "Google" of Easter will explain where it comes from. Passover is declared by God in Leviticus 23 and Easter is man made.

This is just an example of what you can find out. Easter was originally a celebration of Ishtar, the Babylonian goddess of sex, fertility, war, and religiously-sanctioned prostitutes. There are other names included in "Easter" and some appear in Scripture as evil things. "Ishtar" is from Babylon and Babylon represents all the myth religions up to and including the Roman church.

As for the Catholic murders, read "A Woman Rides The Beast". There might be something on You Tube.

Another source might be Chuck Misler's teaching on Revelation.

A Million or more were killed in one day in Europe and the RC church celebrated. Adolf Hitler was born and raised as a Catholic I'm not sure how he ended up, but he started as a Catholic. Certainly his Jew hatred was amplified by the pope at that time.

Before calling others liars and slanderers, try looking things up and do a little studying.
